The Luxair 90cm downdraft rises to a full \u003cstrong\u003e500mm above the worktop surface\u003c\/strong\u003e — 40–60% taller than comparable models on the UK market. That extra height means the extraction panel sits closer to where steam actually forms during high-heat cooking, capturing it before it disperses into the room. For serious cooking with large pans, it's the difference between an extractor that works and one that struggles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e 850 m³\/hr — The Extraction Rate This Style of Cooking Demands\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIsland cooking is inherently harder to extract than wall-mounted hob cooking — there's no surrounding cabinetry to contain rising steam, and the open space around an island allows cooking vapours to spread in all directions. The Luxair downdraft counters this with \u003cstrong\u003e850 m³\/hr of extraction power\u003c\/strong\u003e, drawing steam and odours downward through the unit before they have a chance to rise and spread. At full power it clears a kitchen's worth of heavy cooking vapours in minutes. Three adjustable speeds let you dial back for lighter use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePulls Air Down, Not Up — Why Downdraft Works Differently\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA conventional overhead cooker hood waits for rising steam to reach it before extracting. A downdraft extractor catches that steam as it rises, pulling it downward through the extraction panel at worktop level — a fundamentally more efficient capture method for high-output cooking. The Luxair system ducts air outward through \u003cstrong\u003efloor-level or underfloor ducting to an external wall\u003c\/strong\u003e, or recirculates through a \u003cstrong\u003ecarbon filter kit\u003c\/strong\u003e (sold separately as a ceramic plinth kit) for kitchens where external ducting through the floor isn't possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTwo Finishes — Both Designed to Be a Feature\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStainless steel with black glass\u003c\/strong\u003e creates a two-tone, architectural finish that reads as a design feature rather than an appliance — particularly effective in kitchens with mixed material worktops, marble surfaces, or professional-style cooking setups. \u003cstrong\u003eFull matt black\u003c\/strong\u003e delivers a bold, monolithic look that suits dark kitchens, matte lacquer cabinetry, and islands where every surface is intentional. Both finishes use the same stainless steel construction and deliver identical performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTouch Controls, LED Lighting, Optional Remote\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003etouch control panel\u003c\/strong\u003e manages fan speed and lighting from the front face of the unit — responsive and easy to wipe clean. \u003cstrong\u003eLED lighting\u003c\/strong\u003e illuminates the hob and worktop surface directly, providing task lighting without a separate fitting above. An \u003cstrong\u003eoptional remote control\u003c\/strong\u003e is available for kitchens where the island positioning makes reaching the panel less convenient. One important installation note: if the hood is positioned at \u003cstrong\u003e200mm or less above a gas hob\u003c\/strong\u003e, the LED lighting may be affected by heat — factor this into your installation clearance planning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIsland or Wall-Side — Flexible Installation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Luxair 90cm downdraft installs in \u003cstrong\u003eisland configurations\u003c\/strong\u003e with underfloor ducting routed to an external wall, or in \u003cstrong\u003ewall-side setups\u003c\/strong\u003e where ducting runs through the kickboard or floor cavity. The recirculating option using Luxair's \u003cstrong\u003eceramic plinth kit\u003c\/strong\u003e (available separately) provides an alternative for kitchens where floor ducting isn't feasible. Luxair's home survey engineers can advise on the optimal ducting route for your specific kitchen layout before purchase — book a survey directly from your order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant — Gas Hob Installation:\u003c\/strong\u003e The rise height automatically stops at \u003cstrong\u003e200mm as a safety position\u003c\/strong\u003e, but can be continued manually to any height between 200mm and the maximum \u003cstrong\u003e500mm\u003c\/strong\u003e. If you have a gas hob, the hood \u003cstrong\u003emust be used at the full 500mm rise height only\u003c\/strong\u003e — operating it at lower heights exposes the unit to heat levels that will damage the LED lighting and may affect performance.

The dual motor design ensures extraction pressure is maintained evenly along the entire length of the filtration area — not concentrated at one end. Whether you're cooking on a 90cm induction hob at one end and a gas burner at the other, or running four domino hob zones simultaneously, both motors work in tandem to draw steam and odours downward before they rise into the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt for Every Dual Hob Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 180cm width is specifically engineered for kitchens where cooking ambition outgrows a single hob.

That extra height means the extraction panel reaches closer to where steam and vapour actually form, particularly when using large pots, woks, stockpots, and high-sided cookware across multiple zones simultaneously. The unit auto-stops at 200mm as a safety position, but can be raised manually to any height up to the full 500mm. \u003cstrong\u003eFor gas hob use, the unit must always be operated at the full 500mm rise height\u003c\/strong\u003e to prevent heat damage to the LED lighting and internal components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOnly 90mm Deep — Maximum Cabinet Space Preserved\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt just \u003cstrong\u003e90mm deep\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Luxair 180cm downdraft is the slimmest unit of its type available — leaving significantly more usable space in your base unit cabinets than comparable models. For kitchen islands where under-counter storage is as important as the cooking surface above, that slim profile is a genuine practical advantage. The unit installs flush with the worktop surface when retracted, presenting a completely uninterrupted island top when not in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTouch Controls, LED Lighting \u0026amp; Optional Remote\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003etouch control panel\u003c\/strong\u003e manages both motors and all lighting from a single interface — responsive, easy to clean, and designed to match the matt black finish of the unit. \u003cstrong\u003eLED lighting\u003c\/strong\u003e illuminates the full width of the cooking surface, providing even task lighting across all hob zones.
